Hi Maximilian -- nice to hear from you!

I'm sad to hear that about LLMs. I sometimes wonder if the software world is going to be "locked into" our existing languages, because it's what the LLMs can work with.

FWIW, I think the PRQL syntax is beautiful.

Thanks!

I think at the moment that's indeed the case...

But also maybe that will change — LLMs can learn new languages faster than people, and can _write_ new languages much faster than people. So wide confidence bounds for the future!
